Default Cosworth 4x4 turbo for 450

I am in the process of upgrading my sierra cosowrth and have hit a choice when it comes to turbo ?

i would like it to make over 420 bhp and retain the original 4x4 exhaust manifold what turbo would be suitable i do not wont to go external wastegate

T34 .63 WOULD BE FLAT OUT RISKY???
T38 ???

thanks

No chance on a T34.63.

Im sure you could get a T38 so it suits a 4x4 manifold.

Think he's referring to Roller Bearing r/b.
Think very seriously about gearbox life, in 4wd at that level, could well be an issue.
